When preparing this soup, many people add vinegar for a reason. This product is necessary to preserve the bright color of the dish and add a light and pleasant sourness.

But it's very easy to overdo it with the product. As a result, the taste of the treat suffers.

No need to panic. Any problem can be fixed.

As professional chefs note, you can add water or a bouillon cube to the pan.

Additional boiling without a lid helps.

You can save the situation by adding sugar to the soup. This ingredient will kill the acidity and balance the taste.

A more interesting option is adding rice to borscht.

But first, the grains should be washed and then placed in gauze. Only after this can the rice be lowered into the pan for a few minutes. The heat should be reduced to a minimum. As a result, the grains will perfectly absorb all the excess impurities.

You can replace rice with raw potatoes.
